Choose your Saudi Arabia plan

Choose fixed data for lighter use alongside Wi-Fi, Essential for balanced daily use or Plus for heavier daily use. Match both duration and allowance to your stay and check the selected network before checkout.

Prices may change. Always check the product page for the latest prices before purchasing.

Compare selectable plan types

Standard Unlimited options are Lite. High-speed allowances refresh daily; reduced-speed data continues for the rest of that day after the allowance is used. Unlimited does not mean unrestricted high-speed data. Fixed data is one total pool, ending when the allowance or validity runs out, whichever comes first, without reduced-speed continuation. Plus is not Premium.

Saudi Arabia coverage on Zain or STC

Unlimited Lite, Essential and Plus list Zain Saudi Arabia. Fixed-data options also list Zain, while the 5GB, 10GB and 20GB 30-day options without “V2” in their names list STC Saudi Arabia. Their V2 counterparts list Zain. Select the exact option you want; one package does not include both networks by default.

Technology and speeds depend on your purchased plan, device, supported network and local conditions; 5G is not guaranteed. This product covers Saudi Arabia only, not other Gulf countries.

Pilgrimage travel and remote excursions

Keep hotel details, meeting points, transport bookings and pilgrimage information offline. Busy locations and large gatherings may affect network performance. Download maps before desert routes, AlUla excursions or mountain travel, and plan appropriate backup communications for remote journeys. An eSIM does not replace travel authorization, pilgrimage permits or app-registration requirements.

Hotspot and data-only service

Hotspot is available where supported by your device and network, using the same allowance and speed limits. Large uploads, backups and streaming can use data quickly.

This eSIM has no Saudi number, ordinary calls or SMS and cannot receive local verification texts. Internet calls and messages use data where app features are available. If retaining your home SIM, check roaming charges, turn off its data roaming and avoid unwanted automatic data switching.

Installation and when validity starts

1. Check your exact device model and regional version support eSIM and that the device is carrier-unlocked.
2. Install the emailed QR code over stable Wi-Fi through your cellular or SIM settings, following your order's instructions. Keep the QR private.
3. When ready in Saudi Arabia, enable AloOui, select it for mobile data and turn on data roaming for that line.

Validity starts when the eSIM connects to a supported network in Saudi Arabia, not QR delivery or installation alone. If already in Saudi Arabia, connecting can start the plan. Each package lasts for its selected duration.

You can top up the eSIM for a maximum of six months. This top-up window is separate from purchased-plan validity and does not make a package valid for six months. Follow your order's activation instructions.

APN, connection help and 24/7 human support

1. Confirm AloOui is enabled, selected for mobile data and has data roaming on.
2. If needed, set the APN to data.esim with username and password blank. Save/select it; some devices configure it automatically. Follow your order if its settings differ.
3. Toggle airplane mode or restart. Try 4G/LTE if 5G is unstable.
4. Start with automatic network selection. If needed, choose the supported network for your purchased option.
5. Check remaining data and validity. Keep the eSIM installed while troubleshooting.

Ask support before deleting the profile, changing devices or rescanning the QR code; do not assume transfer, reinstallation or QR reuse is supported.

AloOui provides 24/7 human customer support through the Help Center. Share your order number, exact device model, location and error privately.

Compare the separate Middle East & North Africa eSIM, which includes Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Qatar within its ten-destination list, but excludes Oman and Turkey. Check every stop, allowance, validity and current price. It is a separate purchase, not extra coverage included here.
